Learn how to make delicious Buffalo Chicken Mozzarella Sticks. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

To bring this delicious snack to life, you’ll need a handful of ingredients, many of which you may already have in your pantry. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • 12 mozzarella cheese sticks
  • 1 cup cooked, shredded chicken
  • 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Oil for frying

For those who prefer a milder flavor, consider substituting the buffalo sauce with a barbecue sauce, or for a gluten-free option, use almond flour in place of all-purpose flour.

Instructions

Making these mozzarella sticks is as enjoyable as eating them. Follow these simple steps to create your own batch:

  1. In a small bowl, mix the shredded chicken with buffalo sauce until well coated.
  2. Lay out the mozzarella sticks, and using your fingers, gently press a layer of buffalo chicken onto each stick.
  3. In three separate bowls, place the flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  4. Dip each chicken-coated mozzarella stick first into the flour, then the egg, and finally into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring each stick is thoroughly coated.
  5. Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Once hot, carefully lower the mozzarella sticks into the oil.
  6. Fry each stick for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Remember, patience is key. Let the oil heat properly to achieve the perfect crispness. It’s a lesson I learned after many attempts in my mum’s kitchen, with her gentle guidance by my side.
